    Ball joints are a PITA in my opinion. Good for you, keep it up!

    Okay the Bilstein's are in. The driver side was a PITA because the LCA would not drop. With some convincing it finally dropped and I was able to get everything switched out. The passenger side went faster. I took my time and actually showed a friend how to do it so there was no rush.

    I literately did the same thing yesterday haha I stuck with factory ones though. Original ones were all squished and figured I'd do it with the who front off lol. Then I put the radiator support back in partially.

    The Bolts moved freely but the LCA wouldn't. I tried a couple things before deciding on setting a nice soft crutch on it then using my body weight to push against it. Then it dropped and moved more freely afterwards. The passenger side was easy.

    Change my own oil does that count? Don't have the shop or tools to do any of the other work on my own.. If I did I would though.

    Here's a trick!

    So the dealer wanted to drop the fuel tank and charge me like 330 bucks to change a hose because the clamps were put on wrong (not me) anyway you can get your hand between the frame and the bed to replace the hose no matter how the hose clamps are put on.

    Used a food saver to individual package turkey for camping. I hate keeping lunch meat in a cooler where it can get wet visa versa. This was enough meat for 2 sandwiches.

    Little trick for ya!

    Where'd you get that battery tie down?

    Got one fender mounted today. Working on drilling out spot welds in the bed but it's so darn hot out.

    Friggin' awesome ladies. Much respect! :bowdown:

    My 14 year old daughter wants nothing to do with turnin' wrenches and getting her hands dirty. But my 8 year old is by my side anytime I'm working in the garage or working on a vehicle or working in the yard. Hope she grows up to be an independent woman who can change her own oil and rotate her own tires, etc. :thumbsup:
